Hello, The other day I fell asleep and spilled/splashed a some coffee on the trackpad area of my Pismo. By the time I noticed what had happened the Pismo had shut off and would not restart. So I took if apart as far as the power card that is under the trackpad and let everything dry out. When it was reassembled it would start and run off the charged battery( charged in a different Pismo) but not off the ac adapter and no charging of the battery. >From what I can tell off the Ifixit site, this would seem to indicate that the power card under the track pad is still functional.The next thing to check would be the ac in/sound board and then the motherboard. I might add here that the ac adapter still tests good as far as I can tell. What I'd like to know is if anyone has had a similar experience how likely is the ac/sound board replacement to fix this, because if I end up buying both the ac board and the motherboard I could just as well get a fixer upper Pismo and change my drives and memory over.
your thoughts on this matter would be appreciated.
